8 hours ago8 hr Administrator No. Let' discuss the game before it begins, and during the game. When it is over--start new threads, as I will be locked in traffic coming home. Let's remember the rules.....--Do not take personal shots at fellow OBD members in your post, nor personal shots at the current players or coaches for Oregon.--Criticism of player performance and coaching decisions is what we do in a forum and is fine. Just nothing personal at them...--Keep it clean, and as before....no politics of any kind, anytime.--Howling about tough plays, or cheering great plays is always fine.With that...have the spirited discussions as we always do here; I want to see ALL opinions, as we learn from each other and become better fans. And this is the year to learn more from all the great OBD members in this community.Moderators....please help keep an eye on things, as I will be at the game.And as a first post to start things off....the weather report looks good. No rain, some sunshine and cloudy skies, with a mild 70 degrees projected....perfect! Mr. OBD
8 hours ago8 hr No. Traveling to Honduras today. Flying out of Eugene at 2. So lots of details please.Go Ducks!
8 hours ago8 hr Author Administrator No. P.S. This game is important on a personal basis for me. This is my 40th year as a season ticket holder, but for the past six years....I've bought them and either given them away or sold them due to my health issues with my back and hip.In the past year--I've spent thousands of dollars out-of-pocket for non-traditional treatments that have cut my pain walking by about 90%...thus for the first time in six years--I will be in Autzen! I've lost a ton of weight, with more to finish with yet, and the combination of all of it has brought me to my best health in a long time.I still have a ways to go to hit all my goals, but I am on my way with it, and been on this path for 15 months and believe they can all be achieved. Today marks a big indicator in my progress, and I am thrilled to be sitting on the 34 yard line once again. My first year with season tickets in 1986 had Chris Miller at quarterback! Mr. OBD
7 hours ago7 hr No. I live by the Airport. The sun is out. Partly cloudy. The weather is looking good at 8:09 AM in Eugene!
6 hours ago6 hr Moderator No. Way to go Charles. Keep up the great work towards health. Can't believe the season's about to begin. Let's go Ducks!
5 hours ago5 hr No. Keep up the good work, Charles, and thanks again for creating a place to discuss OBD!For what it’s worth, I went from being bedridden with back and hip issues—once for nearly six months—to playing some of the best golf of my life at Black Butte Ranch this past week, at age 72. Pretty amazing journey.It all started with two books that have become foundational to how I approach life and health:Eight Steps to a Pain-Free Back by Esther GokhaleAtomic Habits by James ClearEnjoy the game!Go Ducks! 🦆
4 hours ago4 hr Moderator No. I'll be interested to see how well the OL meshes right out of the gate.
3 hours ago3 hr No. No more Gary Danielson on CBS today too. Still have Nessler but Charles Davis is replacing the retiring Danielson. Have hear some mixed opinions on Davis, CBS can't get worse can it? 😐
3 hours ago3 hr No. Congrats on the progress Charles. Personally, I'm missing at Autzen today also. Back issue. Getting old is a Jerk.
3 hours ago3 hr No. Congratulations Charles! Great news to hear. Enjoy the game. Go DUCKS! Give us Outstanding Offense with plenty of explosive plays and Dominating Defense with lots of Bronco Devastation!
2 hours ago2 hr No. Carl Williams not having a great return to college football on that drive. Did I count two pass and one run error? Hoping he settles in.
2 hours ago2 hr Moderator No. Williams got badly beat twice on that drive. BSU line getting good drive and push. Well, nothing like getting smacked in the mouth to see what the D will be made of.
2 hours ago2 hr No. Capping off that poor showing with an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. Come on, D. Knock the rust off and settle down.
2 hours ago2 hr No. I know scheduling happens years in advance, but with the strength of our regular conference schedule now there is no reason at all to schedule a team like this in week 1. Not much to gain by it and much more to lose.

2 hours ago2 hr No. I have a serious problem with throwing the ball short of the sticks on 4th down and 2 with 4 NFL WR/TE on the field. Not impressed with the playcalling on either side so far. 🤮

2 hours ago2 hr No. Well well... Im glad I did not bet on us for Natty. How many mistakes can a number 1 team make in a bit over 1 quarter against a pac 8 team.
2 hours ago2 hr No. I’m okay with him not returning another punt in his career. Fair catch inside the 5 and a muff?
